From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If you avoid Nvidia, it have been ready for many years. And to be honset, not sure X11 was really stable with Nvidia either. My main issue with Wayland, is that X doesn't have multi dpi support... and for that I really cannot blame Wayland. Also, Skype doesn't have screensharing, well, they actually had for a while, but then removed it... still, hard to blame on Wayland.
But as a general rule, if you have Nvidia, then you are not allowed to complain about anything... that was your choice, and with Nvidia under Linux, all bets are off. I thought that was clear a long time a go, especially after Linus not so subtle outburst.
Yes, but Linux users aren't always the most wealthy computer users, and people get given tech, inherit tech, bin dive for tech or get a good deal on tech in a primary or secondary market. Consumer choice is very often a privilege, and consumer awareness isn't always total. So complain away Nvidia users!
And maybe if enough people complain NVIDIA will start behaving less like a bag of dicks?
Wishful thinking, I know, but one can hope.
I use NVIDIA (got macbookpro5,3 for free) and complain about NVIDIA 😂👌🏻 good like this?
